Tokyo Station Hotel Marks 110 Years with Unique Cocktails
As Tokyo Station Hotel celebrates its 110th anniversary, it invites guests to enjoy distinctive early summer cocktails at Bar & Café Camellia, nestled within the historic Marunouchi station building. This season, the hotel rolls out a delightful menu featuring innovative twists on classic cocktails loved globally, designed to make your summer experience truly memorable.
New Takes on Classic Cocktails
From May 1 to June 30, 2025, guests can savor these creative drinks in an inviting atmosphere. The
Mango Margarita Highball and the
American Cherry Mint Julep are standouts this season. The Mango Margarita Highball is not only visually appealing but also tantalizing to the palate. Prepared with Don Julio Blanco tequila, agave syrup, fresh lime juice, carbonated water, and topped with mango sorbet, this cocktail offers a refreshing escape. There’s no ice in sight because it showcases the sorbet at the bottom of the glass, encouraging patrons to enjoy the explosion of flavor that evolves with every spoonful.
On the other hand, the American Cherry Mint Julep proves to be a summer necessity. Using Maker's Mark bourbon, all the classic ingredients like fresh mint and Earl Grey tea meld harmoniously with a unique twist—American cherry sorbet shaped as ice. Over time, as the sorbet melts, the julep undergoes a delightful flavor transformation, maintaining the refreshing essence that summer cocktails should embody.
Mocktails for Everyone
For those who prefer to skip alcohol or if you’re just having a laid-back day, both cocktails can be enjoyed as mocktails. Bar & Café Camellia ensures that everyone can participate in the excitement of its vibrant cocktail culture, combined with their tastefully designed non-alcoholic options.
